A solid mid-iron provides a good chance
at birdie, but a miss will make par a tough HOLE 8
challenge. All bunkers surrounding the
green create very difficult up and downs.

However, a ball in the right HOLE 10

hitting the green in regulation.

YARDS 426 — PAR 4
A slightly downhill left-to-right par 4,
where a tee shot up the right side with a
slight draw is ideal. Be careful as there is a
well-positioned bunker on the left side of
the fairway as well as out of bounds.
This is a challenging green as it slopes
severely from back to front.

This dogleg-right par 5 is reachable in two.
However, a miss left off the tee into one

This is the second-longest par 4 on the
golf course, beginning a tough stretch of
finishing holes. A precise drive will leave HOLE 14
a short- to mid-iron, but the landing area
narrows past the two bunkers both left
and right of the fairway. With a green that
slopes slightly back to front, an approach
shot underneath the hole is beneficial.

This par 3 provides one of the most
interesting green complexes on the entire
course. With little depth and severe back-
to-front slopes, an ideal tee shot will be
placed beneath the hole. Deep greenside
bunkers guard both the front and left side
of the green, placing a great deal of
importance on club selection from the tee.
